Dawn of War II: Elite is a multiplayer mod for Dawn of War II: Retribution. Originally envisioned by Caeltos (a competitive player with a wealth of experience spanning through vanilla to Retribution) as an experimental balance mod for high-level players, Elite evolved into making bolder changes as THQ cut the official support of DOW 2 in their dive toward bankruptcy. The addition of new abilities and units became commonplace, from Space Marine Sternguard Veterans, Eldar Fire Dragons, Chaos Raptors to the Ork Flash Gitz, finalising in the introduction of an entirely new faction - the Grey Knights, based on Bloodravage’s Destroyer 40k mod – all designed from a competitive PvP angle. Coupled with continuous development and an active community dedicated to casts, coverage and regular events, the Elite mod continues to preserve and enrich the de facto Warhammer 40K RTS to this day.
This game was one of the reasons of where I learned about the 40k universe. :)
Dawn of war <3
Best multiplayer-mod ever. New faction, new units and tons of bug fixing and what matters most for a multiplayer game: good balance.
If you like Dow2 Retribution multiplayer you have to install this mod. You won't regret it.
Improves the game greatly.
New units, a new race and tons of balancing done on a regular basis. It is a superb upgrade from the vanilla experience.
